Syrian blogger Razan Ghazzawi said to have been released

Syrian blogger Razan Ghazzawi, who was arrested on December 4th on charges that could carry a prison sentence of anywhere from three to 15 years, is said to have been released.

The Facebook page calling for the blogger and activist’s release announced that she was expected to be freed, according to Syrian lawyer Razan Zaitouneh.

It wasn’t until the blogger’s sister, Nadine Ghazzawi, tweeted that her family is on their way to pick her up, that it was confirmed that she has in fact been released after exactly two weeks in detention.
